ASUS Zenbook UX305 compatability

Hello Rehabman, another quick question i was wanting your expertise on...

I am wanting to install Windows 10 on my laptop in addition to my OS X. Do you have any suggestions or links as to which guide I should follow on here to accomplish this? I did read on the forum but there were different variations and methods that required DSDT patching and such.

Thank you,

Thank you,

Dual boot with Windows UEFI is covered in post #2 of the guide.

ok, got another question for you guys..

I got the drivers for Linux for the Asus UX305CA TouchPad...
Is it possible to use these I2C drivers on OS X since Linux and OS X are both based on the Unix system?

Or do these have to be converted over to OS X specifically?

OS X uses a completely different driver architecture (IOKit). The code is useful, but an effort to port it to Darwin/IOKit is non-trivial.

Thank you so much for all your help Rehabman, I have learned so much from you and this forum.

As of right now, I have a completely functioning Hackintosh that works great and doesn't crash. I even got my Bluetooth issue fixed to where it doesn't get disabled after going to sleep.

The only 2 issues I have left is getting the trackpad to work (which sounds like thats not going to happen) and still trying to figure out my FaceTime Camera, why it looks like its a low quality camera, and as soon as I open up PhotoBooth, the quality goes back to HD. I haven't been able to figure that issue out yet.

Other than this minor issues, this is a great system for a Hackintosh Laptop.

Thanks again,

Hi Chrinist,
I am making good progress on the I2C Trackpad driver.
At this point I have a moving mouse cursor, but no multitouch or two-finger scrolling whatsoever.

Once the driver is stable enough to be loaded a boot time, I will release it.
Meanwhile, if you really want to try it, check out: https://github.com/maximevince/VoodooI2CPCI and build it using Xcode

Hey... this is good news... If/when I get a laptop with I2C, I'd be glad to help out.

I know early I2C efforts were using polling... do you have this interrupt driven yet?

Awesome! Thank you so much for your help.

Ok, I went ahead on Xcode and compiled the kext, installed it with Kext Wizard, and it still doesn't seem to be working. I have included a copy of the kext that I compiled from your GitHub link above... Is there something I need to change on the kext file in order for it to start working?

Thanks again! =)

Hi Vinz0r, do I have to patch my DSDT in order for the kext to be recognized at all?
